University Centre Weston also offers Degree and Higher Apprenticeship programmes. These programmes are designed to provide students with the skills and knowledge needed to excel in their chosen careers while offering the flexibility to earn while they learn. Combining classroom learning with real-world application, University Centre Weston ensures that students are well-prepared for the demands of the modern workforce, making it an ideal choice for those looking to advance their education and career simultaneously.
Degree and Higher Apprenticeships are a new way of combining full-time paid work with part-time university-level study. Degree Apprenticeships are paid for by employers, so they are ideal for people currently in employment who want to study towards an Honours Degree while keeping their job and income or they can be a route into employment for learners who have previously studied Level 3 and up qualifications.
As an apprentice, you’ll spend most of the time learning in the workplace, and then around 20% in the classroom.
Apprentices are taught via lectures and seminars in the classroom, e-learning and real-world, on-the-job training. UCW’s Higher Education Library Plus (HE.LP) team also deliver a series of sessions on degree-level research and academic writing to all first-year students.
Apprentices are also expected to learn through independent self-study, which involves working on individual and group projects, and undertaking research in preparation for coursework and exams.
